DEUTERONOMY 28:32 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand.”
Your sons and daughters shall be given to another people, while you look on; you will strain your eyes looking for them all day but be powerless to do anything — children enslaved before the parent's eyes: the deepest grief. The phrase 'strain your eyes' ('u-einekha kikhlatot') captures the parent's anguish.
